Mark Steyn: ‘The Left Wants to Dehumanize Its Political Opposition’

Where are all of the scholars and intellectuals on the left, leading the vanguard of liberalism — showing republitards that their way is the better way?

Instead, we get Eric Clanton, the bike lock guy.

A sundry of shrill comedians, cloaking hatred behind jokes.

NYC plays in the park, depicting Trump being stabbed to death.

ANTIFA rioters, beating up people who they disagree with.

The eloquent Mark Steyn, an extremely talented columnist, offers his 2 cents on the subject — describing a political environment bereft of decency.

    RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, person­alize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not instit­utions; people hurt faster than instit­utions.

    RULE 6: “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.

    RULE 3: “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecu­rity, anxiety and uncert­ainty.

    Tucker’s been doing a second hour live after Hannity. Gives Lauren Duca an extra hour to get off with her little pink friend. You know she wants it.

    It’s almost like dehumanizing the opposition is one of the steps of committing genocide. Oh right it is:

    Don’t fool yourselves, violent conflict is coming. The left will not stop. Don’t be a victim like people in South Africa now are. Prepare yourselves, find likeminded people, create your own communities/support networks and don’t let your guard down.

      I hate that term to be honest, but the reality of the situation is that political violence will become very real very fast.

      Where I live people are already targeted for violence simply based on the color of their skin (hint: its not whites attacking blacks) should the opportunity for a cowardly attack present itself. Two weeks ago a 73 year old women was beaten into critical condition by a group of three.

    I’ve also noticed a religious fervor about the movement. It’s not just irrational energy. It also seems to incite “jihad”-like responses to losing a media battle, for instance. I disagree with the commentary in that I don’t recognize it as “the left”. It’s a strain of political ideology widely marketed that has very few organizing principles excepting it’s main purpose which is to destroy the enemy (anyone who thinks differently) by any means possible.
